Svoronata Resort

The village of Svoronata can be found on the west coast of Cephalonia. With the proximity of the airport, it is a rather busy place since after about 15 minutes, you can already be lying on a beautiful beach.

Unlike other coast regions of Cephalonia, Svoronata surroundings are quite lowland, and so, they are perfect for hiking and long walks, without needing to climb on hills and conquer steep mountains.

Svoronata beaches

Near Svoronata, there are sandy beaches stretching on the coast of the Ionian Sea, with the longest beach of Avithos located approximately in the middle of a long and spatious bay with several curves and secluded places. Together with a few rocks and sky-blue sea water, the softy rosy and reddish sand creates a unique atmosphere. There are umbrellas and deckchairs available and obviously the necessary refreshment including ice-cold drinks.

What to do in Svoronata?

The village of Svoronata is a suitable target of an afternoon or an evening walk. You will see a very old windmill rising above it, and in the narrow streets in the centre, you can observe rural architecture and religious buildings. In the local shops, you will get articles of daily use and basic foodstuffs, and in some of the catering facilities you can get a bite to eat.
